SkinPen Microneedling with Hyaluronic Acid

A Powerful Combination for Healthy, Glowing Skin

SkinPen microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses tiny needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates the body's natural healing response, which produces collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are proteins that give the skin its structure and elasticity.

ABOUT MICRONEEDLING

WHAT IT IS

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that creates micro wounds in the skin to stimulate collagen production. This multi purpose treatment takes advantage of the body’s natural healing process to treat a variety of skin conditions. To achieve optimal results, a series of multiple treatments is typically recommended.

HOW IT WORKS

Microneedling uses a handheld device that uses extremely sharp, sterile needles to puncture the skin. This damage to the skin helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, which includes the increased production of collagen and elastin, two crucial proteins for skin health. 

WHAT TO EXPECT

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure with very little downtime. Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and a numbing cream will be applied prior to the treatment. During the treatment, you may feel some warmth and a scratching/pulling sensation as the device moves over your skin, but the numbing cream should keep pain to a minimum. Immediately after treatment, your skin will likely be red and swollen; this can last up to a few days. You can return to your normal routine immediately after the procedure, but you should stay out of the sun until your skin heals. 

FAQ: SkinPen Microneedling with Hyaluronic Acid

How does SkinPen microneedling with hyaluronic acid work?
 
SkinPen microneedling uses tiny needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This triggers the body's natural healing response, which produces collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are proteins that give the skin its structure and elasticity.
 
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to keep the skin hydrated and plump. It is also a powerful humectant, which means that it attracts water to the skin.
 
When SkinPen microneedling is combined with hyaluronic acid, the micro-channels created by the SkinPen needles allow the hyaluronic acid to penetrate deep into the skin, where it can provide maximum hydration and plumpness.

What to expect during a SkinPen microneedling with hyaluronic acid treatment
 
SkinPen microneedling with hyaluronic acid treatments are typically performed in a doctor's office or medical spa. During the treatment, your skin will be cleansed and then a topical numbing cream may be applied. Your technician will then use the SkinPen device to create micro-channels in the skin.
 
After the micro-channels have been created, your technician will apply a hyaluronic acid serum to the skin. The serum will be absorbed into the skin through the micro-channels.
 
The procedure typically takes about 30-60 minutes to complete. After the treatment, you may experience some mild redness and swelling. This is usually temporary and resolves within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately after your treatment.
